The operator dropped the rate for calls to Vietnam by about 46%, from CZK 15.47 including VAT per minute to CZK 8.33 including VAT per minute.

“According to official statistics, the Vietnamese community is the third most populous in the Czech Republic. Our promotional offer was very successful; the number of calls to Vietnam more than doubled during its three-and-a-half-month duration,” says Tanja Reineke, Director Pricing, Revenue & Products, Vodafone Czech Republic, adding, “That is also why we have decided to accommodate the needs of our customers and offer them a reduced per-minute rate for calls to this destination.”

The discount is valid for both prepaid card and tariff customers, with the exception of those using the “Slyším vás“ and “Dohoda s Vodafonem” tariffs. The rate also applies to calls to Vietnam from all countries in which Vodafone Passport is available. From these countries, the customer can call Vietnam for a connection fee of CZK 22 for the first minute, after which the same per-minute rate that they pay at home applies, that is, CZK 8.33 including VAT.
